Post subject:  Screen resolution problem

have got a really strange problem that needs resolving with mythtv..

I have got everything installed and running great using 2 dvb-t cards and a 6600GT, I am using two different resolutions...

ModeLine "1232x700p" 58.800 1232 1272 1400 1568 700 705 710 750 +hsync +vsync
ModeLine "1824x1028i" 74.250 1824 2400 2444 2640 1028 1060 1063 1125 interlace +hsync +vsync

Everything works great at 1232x700p but if I change to 1824x1028i it just crashes without anything in the log files other resolutions work fine as well...when I click Watch Tv it just hangs.....

Could it be to do with the fact that its an interlaced resolution...

Any help much appreciated

Adrian.

could be cause it's an interlaced resolution. Have you loaded the nvidia drivers? if so what version? and if I may ask where did you dig up those resolutions?

Hi,

Thanks for replying I'm using version 1.0.7676 of the nvidia drivers on Gentoo, The modes I created myself in windows and exported the ModeLines from powerstrip. This is so I can see all the config setting and OSD correctly because of overscan on my Plasma TV

Any help much appreciated

Adrian.

well you may want to try the nvidia 6629 drivers, as anything newer has some issues with interlace at least with 1080i modelines.

Hi, thanks for you suggestion.

Unfortunately I tried the 6629 drivers last night but it did not work. I still get the same problem :?
